a friend of mine dropped this note on my desk, oh ages ago it seems, but i’ve kept it and read it almost daily.<\/p>\n
“Hi… Kierkegaard<\/a> once distinguished between a genius and an apostle by saying, ‘the genius impresses us with his own brilliance, the apostle with God’s glory.’ I’m not feeling too much like a genius lately, good thing, it gives me freedom to let His glory reign.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
by nature, we think that everything revolves around our own brilliance, own perfection, own pride. however, God\u2019s way is for us to die to self so that He may have the first and reign above it all. this little note has been a great reminder of that need to die to my OWN self-glory daily.<\/p>\n
